Water Chemistry
Here is a sample of my tap water chemistry:
Temp 27-30 celcius
PH 7.54 units
Color 5.00 TCU
Odor unobjectable
Turbidity 1.10 NTU
Alkalinity (CaC02) 53.00 mg/l
Bicarbonates (HCO3) 64.70 mg/l
Acidity (CaC03) 4.00 mg/l
Free Carbon Dioxide (C02) 5.30 mg/l
Chlorides (CI) 8.00 mg/l
Iron (FE++) 0.06 mg/l
Hardness (CaC03) 58.00 mg/l
P.Alkalinity (CaC03) 0 mg/l
Res. Chlorine 0.30 mg/l
Flouride 0.41 mg/l
Sulfates (S04) 12.00 mg/l
Manganese 0.00 mg/l
Conductivity 139.40 us/cm
Nitrates (N02) 0.039 mg/l
Nitrates (N03) 5.30 mg/l
Ammonia-Nitrogen (NH3-N) 0.00 mg/l
Do you think this is a good water quality for Apisto and Rams? Will you
advise me to have an R.O. Unit with this quality of water? What is the
best thing to do if I want to keep South American Dwarft Cichlids?
Thanks for your advise.
